Students in an introductory statistics class were asked to report the age of their mothers when they were born. Summary statistics include Sample size: 28 students Sample mean: 29.643 years Sample standard deviation: 4.564 years a. Calculate the standard error of this sample mean. b. Determine and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the mother’s mean age (at student’s birth) in the population of all students at this university. c. How would a 99% confidence interval compare to the 90%...

Five hundred eleven (511) homes in a certain southern California community are randomly surveyed to determine if they meet minimal earthquake preparedness recommendations. One hundred seventy-three (173) of the homes surveyed met the minimum recommendations for earthquake preparedness and 338 did not. 1) Find the confidence interval at the 90% Confidence Level for the true population proportion of southern California community homes meeting at least the minimum recommendations for earthquake preparedness. ( , ) (Round to the 4th decimal place) 2) State...
A) A certain region would like to estimate the proportion of voters who intend to participate in upcoming elections. A pilot sample of 25 voters found that 17 of them intended to vote in the election. Determine the additional number of voters that need to be sampled to construct a 95% interval with a margin of error equal to 0.06 to estimate the proportion. The region should sample ____ additional voters. B) Determine the sample size needed to construct a...
2. Suppose that a random sample of 41 state college students is asked to measure the length of their right foot in centimeters. A 90% confidence interval for the mean foot length for students at this university turns out to be (21.709, 25.091). If we now calculated a 95% confidence interval, would the new confidence interval be wider than or narrower than or the same as the original? b. Suppose two researchers want to estimate the proportion of American college...

Two researchers conducted a study in which two groups of students were asked to answer 42 trivia questions from a board game. The students in group 1 were asked to spend 5 minutes thinking about what it would mean to be a professor, while the students in group 2 were asked to think about soccer hooligans. These pretest thoughts are a form of priming. The 200 students in group 1 had a mean score of 26.2 with a standard deviation...
1. In a study of speed dating, male subjects were asked to rate the attractiveness of their female dates, and a sample of the results is listed below (1equals=not attractive; 10equals=extremely attractive). Construct a confidence interval using a 99% confidence level. What do the results tell about the mean attractiveness ratings of the population of all adult females? 6, 8, 1, 10, 7, 5, 8, 9, 7, 10, 3, 9 What is the confidence interval for the population mean muμ?...
